I believe the increase in blood pressure is limited by the Vasodialtion that causes arterial diameter to increase in the exercising skeletal muscle.
Vasodilation causes increase in blood flow due to decrease in vascular resistance. The resistance produced mainly in the arterioles which is known as the systemic vascular resistance or the peripheral vascular resistance. The cardiac output is the function of heart rate and stroke volume and must be always on check.<span />
It is called a semi-permeable membrane. Most eukaroytic cells have this.
Answer:
A: Oxygen levels are low and, therefore, more red blood cells are produced, giving the athletes an advantage when competing at lower altitudes.
Explanation:
<em>At high altitudes, the partial pressure of oxygen is lower compared to lower altitudes</em>. The body system try to adjust to lower oxygen level by undergoing several physiological changes. Depending on the duration spent in high altitude, the body can either try to adjust in the short term or acclimatize for a longer term.
One of the processes the body undergoes during acclimatization is an increase in red blood cell production. The kidney secretes erythropotein in response to inadequate oxygen in body tissues, and this makes the liver to increase erythrocyte production.
The increase in red blood cell production correspondingly increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood as a result of increased hemoglobin. This condition persists for a few weeks even after the body returns to lower altitude where oxygen is adequate. Increased oxygen capacity means the rate of energy production (through respiration) within the body will also increase
<em>Hence, those who acclimatize to high altitude usually experience increased capillary density, tissue perfusion and improved athletic performance at lower altitudes. </em>
The correct option is A.
Answer:
While all crocodiles, tuataras and most squamates (a clade consisting of snakes, lizards and amphisbaenians) have teeth, all living birds and turtles possess toothless beaks for mouths. Technically called rhamphothecae, their beaks are built from
